Chapter 14: Honesty
Wealth touches people's hearts. This is constant in any world.
Wealth is locked in a cupboard, many people can stay calm when they don't see it, and what is only imaginary is lacking after all. But when wealth is presented in front of people's eyes, people's inner greed will naturally rise. And when this wealth is not only something you can dream of, but also something you can take, it will be difficult for people to control their desires.
That's what the barrier is in front of.
The Psychedelic Illusion Enchantment is actually not very advanced, and it has neither direct attack nor the slightest defense. Some are just phantoms that are false and real. To put it simply, only the stone gate standing in the barrier is real, and everything else is just a trick. However, when the runes such as "Enchantment", "False Truth", and "Temptation" are attached to the barrier, combined with simple visual traps, it becomes an effective measure to eliminate stowaways.
"Resurrected in place."
Ning Yuan's spirit body appeared on the platform from virtual to real, and the novice suit automatically appeared on his body. Next to him was his own corpse, which had been changed beyond recognition.
Scar did abide by the agreement and sent Ning Yuan to the platform. It's just that the way to send it is to throw Ning Yuan, who was already seriously injured, like a stone.
If Ning Yuan was already a cultivator, and he was not injured and could grasp his balance in the air, then he was indeed sure that he would land on the platform safely without injury or minor injuries. It's a pity that Ning Yuan is an ordinary person who was seriously injured. So you can only choose the price of dying once to step on the platform.
How to say it.
Ning Yuan had to sigh that the potential that could be exploded by the talent combination of "fitness" and "strength" was worthy of being one of the best core talent combinations. Even if the level of development is not high, it can make a husband-level cultivator like Scar who is seriously injured and dying burst out with inhuman terrifying power in an instant.
Since Scar had complied with the agreement, Ning Yuan naturally told everything.
In fact, Ning Yuan only did three things. The first is to strengthen the impression in the eyes of the other party as much as possible through camouflage, the second is to vaguely warn of the possible danger when approaching the exit of the passage, and the third is to let everyone appear together at the exit of the passage as much as possible to see the enchantment on the opposite side.
Ning Yuan knew that when Scar and the others learned of their origins, they would definitely have at least a minimum of vigilance, even if they were just ordinary people who had not cultivated.
In other words, it is precisely because he is an ordinary person who has not cultivated that he can walk out of the dragon's blood forest, even if it is only from the periphery more than a hundred miles away to the edge of the forest, that it is more worthy of vigilance. What's more, it's in this time period when the beast tide is coming.
So Ning Yuan began to disguise from the beginning. He didn't care if Scar and the others saw that he was pretending, he just needed the other party's grasp of his character to be a little biased and leave a superficial impression of some kind of impression.
A calm and resolute person and a cowardly person give a completely different impression. And if a stranger behaves cowardly and timid in front of you from the beginning, then even if you know that the other person is pretending, you will inevitably leave the impression of the other party's cowardice in your mind.
But I can't pretend to be it. Otherwise, it is easy to be seen by others. Therefore, under the persecution of Scar, Ning Yuan still showed the courage to break the net even if he was cowardly. At that moment, even if Scar and the others still guessed that Ning Yuan was pretending, they also left a cowardly impression that Ning Yuan hoped to deepen.
Anyone who is oppressed to the extreme will explode. If a person is oppressed to the extreme and still suffers in silence, then this must not be his true character. And as long as it erupts, then even if it is disguised, the personality shown earlier will be part of the real personality, if not all. And as long as this part of the truth is accepted by the other party, Ning Yuan's purpose of disguise will be achieved.
This laid the foundation for everything that followed.
The narrow and dark passage is the easiest place to hide and escape because of the many forks, so generally speaking, if Ning Yuan wants to escape or play some tricks, this is the most suitable place. This has become the place where everyone remains vigilant against Ning Yuan for the last time.
However, in the most suitable place, Ning Yuan honestly did nothing. This unreasonable performance made a certain impression that Ning Yuan had already left in everyone's hearts unconsciously begin to magnify. And this amplified impression made everyone feel irrepressible disappointment with Ning Yuan's performance as a player, and turned into a feeling of disdain. At this time, except for the two husband-level leaders of Scar and Fine Scar, the others could be said to have completely let down their guard against Ning Yuan.
And then there's the second thing, what seems to be a well-intentioned reminder actually harbors evil intentions. How do you feel when a person who has become your contempt reminds you of possible danger ahead? Especially if you don't know the risk yourself by some means.
I guess most people ignore each other's reminders and focus on their own feelings, as the two scouts did, right? In their eyes, the passage is safe, only the situation outside the passage is unknown. As a qualified scout, even if it was a place that had already been remotely explored, they would carefully investigate it again, but Ning Yuan's reminder made them no longer dwell on their feet, and put the target on the unexplored part outside the passage.
Then the gap that was not easy to find was naturally ignored by the two. The result was only death.
And as soon as the two of them die, the thin scar as the leader will naturally be investigated, and the others will immediately enter a state of alert and surround them.
At this time, Ning Yuan was actually gambling a little. That is, the scar alone is not enough to easily repel the gap. Then you will need the help of everyone.
However, what Ning Yuan didn't expect was that Fine Scar actually knew the characteristics of the gap, and directly let everyone use flashbang tactics to scare away the gap.
Fortunately, everyone gathered together, walked to the entrance of the passage, and saw the enchantment phantom.
"In fact, apart from disguising my own personality, everything else I did was just going with the flow. And just in case, when Scar asked, I also mentioned the cliff wall and the rock bridge. However, because of the gap, everyone's spirit was more concentrated, and all their attention was attracted by the superb scenery presented on the opposite side. There is no remedy that I feared. Cough... ”
Ning Yuan coughed up blood while looking at the scar on the opposite side, whose wheezing sound was getting worse, and said calmly.
"I see." Scar closed his eyes and said heavily, "As long as there is a deviation in your impression, will everything happen naturally?" ”
Then he opened his eyes and looked at Ning Yuandao calmly:
"When I'm under the influence of an enchantment, you should be able to easily get out of my grasp, right?"
Ning Yuan coughed lightly, raised his hand to wipe the blood on his face, and said with a wry smile:
"I was sure of the effect of the enchantment, but I didn't expect it to be so good. It's not enough. Cough.. ”
"Hahaha... Hearing Ning Yuan's answer, even though he was seriously injured, Scar couldn't help but let out a burst of laughter, and then the wound that tore at his waist hissed lightly, but even with such a pale face, he pointed at Ning Yuan with a touch of relief and smiled: "You really don't have a last resort." ”
"I'm just a little clever." Ning Yuan laughed at himself.
Then looking at Scar, he asked with some hesitation:
"You should be able to resurrect too, right?"
Scar looked at Ning Yuan and nodded calmly.
Ning Yuan's eyes showed such a look, and he asked:
"How many times?"
"Three times."
Scar said frankly: "After three times, you will have to be reincarnated." ”
After speaking, he stood up with some difficulty and gasped:
"Alright. Time is short, I'll send you over. ”
Ning Yuan was stunned and said:
"The dagger with a fine scar shouldn't be smeared. With your strength ... ”
Scar didn't speak, but tore open the somewhat torn placket of his chest, revealing a slight knife cut in his heart, and then spoke:
"Scar, this guy will always only attack the vital point, as long as he is stabbed, few will survive."
"Ahem. . . Athletic Talent for Muscle Control? ”
Ning Yuan leaned against the rock wall and stood up with difficulty, rubbing his stuffy chest with his left hand, and asked.
"Not bad. It's a pity that you can only suppress one place if you don't learn well, and there is a time limit. ”
Scar looked at the knife on his chest, and said with some complacency and more depressed.
The technique of using muscles to control wounds is generally the preserve of cultivators at the rank of lieutenant and above, and it is indeed self-satisfying to be able to master it through talent at the level of husband. It's a pity that because it's an ability that is obtained in advance with the help of talents, it has a time limit.
Ning Yuan looked at the scar's knife wound that had obviously penetrated deep into his heart, and said enviously: "I really envy those who have a talent for fitness." ”
"Hmph." Scar seemed to remember something, and snorted softly, "I envy those guys who have a talent for self-healing." ”
Then he took off the iron bow from his shoulder, threw it on the ground, and said:
"Let's go. I'll send you there. ”
Ning Yuan looked at Scar, confirmed that the other party really had no killing intent, and said with some doubts:
"Why?"
Scar was stunned for a moment, and after a turn of thought, he understood what Ning Yuan meant, and pulled out an ugly smile on his face full of horizontal flesh and said:
"You killed all of us once, and the loss is not small, so it stands to reason that I should indeed have you broken into ten thousand pieces. This has always been the case in the spiritual world. You can't complain about me. ”
Then his face became serious:
"But, it's the same thing. You have the power to hurt us so badly, and we have nothing to complain about. Not to mention the resurrection. ”
"Really don't complain?" Ning Yuan said suspiciously.
"Of course I complain!"
Scar said angrily:
"It's the first time I've been made so miserable. Your Zuma's, if it's not strong, it's okay, but you're Zuma's let us bring about our own destruction. Your Zuma's. ”
Scar gasped for a while, his face turned even paler, and he took a deep breath and said:
"It's a pity, you're a player. Your reincarnation mechanics are different from ours. For a thousand years, your existence will be favored by the system, and in a short period of time you will grow much faster than we are. So for the sake of the future, it's better not to do it or not to do it. ”
After a pause, he sighed and continued:
"And Lao Tzu lied to you just now. With Lao Tzu's current physical strength, he can only kill you once at most. But if you delay the resurrection, Lao Tzu will die. If I don't send you over, after you die once, your state will be fully restored, and Lao Tzu can't fly over immediately and kill you again. What's the use? ”
"Maybe, if you kill me once, I won't be able to get a chance?" Ning Yuan looked at Scar and said.
Scar glanced at Ning Yuan and said:
"You think you can pass without dying once?"
Ning Yuan was stunned for a moment, thinking about his state, it was indeed so.
"Since you have to die once, it is better for Lao Tzu to send you over and let you die on that side. It also saves you from picking up Lao Tzu's corpse after you are resurrected. ”
Then he sighed and said:
"You should also leave a good fate, maybe I don't know when I will use it."
Saying that, he lifted Ning Yuan up without waiting for Ning Yuan to ask again, and then asked as if he suddenly remembered:
"By the way, boy, are you sure you won't be affected by the barrier when you get there?"
"The enchantment only affects the area beyond fifty zhang, and the obstruction method within the range will automatically disappear."
